Gravity & Grace
If left unconscious, personal histories have a tendency to loop through space and time with repeated narratives being passed on through the generations.
This body of work explores the intersection of domestic ritual and the metaphysical. By documenting the deliberate collection and arrangement of meaningful objects, I examine the 'tactile liturgy' of motherhood—a series of private devotions intended to safeguard the ones we love. These compositions serve as physical manifestations of silent prayer, transforming everyday ephemera into conduits for hope. Through this curation of the mundane, the work seeks to bridge the gap between the material world and the unseen forces of grace, inviting the viewer to witness the profound weight of a quiet faith.
